Do what burrito said, but also some of you tube to track connections are weak. espically on the drop and pullout.

Yeah they are a tad weak i will fix them

Heres a layout idea:

What do you all think?

Its inserting but, I have to wait to get a train or get a set till I can test my layout.

Make that pullout and in bigger,allong with the overbank.
You may think you're out of space but your base is only 14x4 you can make it 20x5 and have plenty of room.

Yhanks for noticing my base was off! and I think ive made the pullout better.

I HAVE CHANGED THE NAME TO "It came from hell" witch was one of my other coasters names.

That layout looks way too long for the height of this coaster, but people can surprise you...

I might, Im planing on 3 more maybe 4 if I have the speed for it.

***update***
Well I added more supports and, What not and, I wont be building to much because I need a SS train along with, More x ties and, Hopefully some tubing.





Heres my broken ss cars and, The nose on the front car is broke to.

[Poseidon]

very nice work! I'm not kidding. It is pretty hard to see someone on SSC make a tube looper with only one SS. Please put in a video so we can see if it shakes.

I would of had a video up already but if you look up you can see my ss cars are broke, Hence why i need a ss set!

Check ebay, theres 4 or 5 SS cars, but they include people incase you want a car or two.

[whitecoconut1233]

You can get cars on Ebay for one to five dollars a piece

i am 100% aware of that but i want a full set

[LaMbChOpZ]

i still say ebay, and besides, the cars themselves are over $20 usually, not including shipping.

Well i was grounded so, I started to work on my coaster again, Its going good so far but I am unsure what i want after loop, rising helix(somewhat), then a heartline then some stuff i laid out my track plans/ideas in VV track so you can tell.

NOTE: I STILL dont have any ss cars to use so i have NO idea if it will even make it through the loop...




Tell me witch you think is best.
PLEASE COMMENT!!!!!!

Scott if all you need is a nose piece for the front car I will give you one. I have converted a coupled of rear cars to middle cars and stole the rear wheel assemblies from front cars. So I have a couple of fronts that are not being used.

Let me know where you are and I'll check how much to send them, probably fit in a small padded envelop.

[RollerManiac]

I like the first one.

I can't help you with the nose. I'm missing one and I'm planning on using two trains. Sorry.

Would it include a nose of the front car?

Well I might get another ss or get one from ForgotToGrowUp.
Thanks any way.

I'm looking at your layout, and i know its not going to be exactly where the VV coaster is, but that helix is going to be tight, and small. Are you sure it's going to make it?, because that loop's looking small, so i don't know how much speed your going to get after that, and with the tight curve and the banking of the helix, it might not work.

yes i know its a tight fit but ill wait and see for when i get a nose car thing from "ForgotToGrowUp" i can test it and tweak it.

[scott]

Well im ungrounded....I think.... but any ways I added a loop, and supports, and started on the rising helix, Its terrible I know.... But hows the loop? Also tell me if you see a bump.




PLEASE COMMENT!!!!

[WardCoastez]

i dont see bumbs in the loop but i am afraid that the cars will go too slow for it
i like it, i hope it works.

[ForgotToGrowUp]

I put that car (minus back wheels) in the mail yesterday, should get it in a few days

[TheCodeMaster]

The loop looks pretty good but the helix is a bit out of shape. You have defiantly have improved! Great job!

[LaMbChOpZ]

Loop still looks small, and if it's possible, evenly space out your crossties, it should make a difference.

That helix looks really, really small to me. can it even make it?
